Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building known as 'St Johns Farmhouse', and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses, including its setting

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the special historic interest of the Grade II listed building, to which great weight must be given under paragraph 199 of the Framework, was not outweighed by the private benefits of improved living accommodation.

The private benefits of improved living accommodation and better meeting the appellant's needs did not outweigh the great weight to be given to the less than substantial harm to the heritage significance of the Grade II listed building.

Framework references: 189, 197, 199, 200, 202
